28 ;;; Commentary:
30 ;; This Lisp code is run in Emacs when it is to operate as
31 ;; a server for other processes.
33 ;; Load this library and do M-x server-edit to enable Emacs as a server.
34 ;; Emacs opens up a socket for communication with clients. If there are no
35 ;; client buffers to edit, server-edit acts like (switch-to-buffer
36 ;; (other-buffer))
38 ;; When some other program runs "the editor" to edit a file,
39 ;; "the editor" can be the Emacs client program ../lib-src/emacsclient.
40 ;; This program transmits the file names to Emacs through
41 ;; the server subprocess, and Emacs visits them and lets you edit them.
43 ;; Note that any number of clients may dispatch files to Emacs to be edited.
45 ;; When you finish editing a Server buffer, again call server-edit
46 ;; to mark that buffer as done for the client and switch to the next
47 ;; Server buffer. When all the buffers for a client have been edited
48 ;; and exited with server-edit, the client "editor" will return
49 ;; to the program that invoked it.
51 ;; Your editing commands and Emacs's display output go to and from
52 ;; the terminal in the usual way. Thus, server operation is possible
53 ;; only when Emacs can talk to the terminal at the time you invoke
54 ;; the client. This is possible in four cases:
56 ;; 1. On a window system, where Emacs runs in one window and the
57 ;; program that wants to use "the editor" runs in another.
59 ;; 2. On a multi-terminal system, where Emacs runs on one terminal and the
60 ;; program that wants to use "the editor" runs on another.
62 ;; 3. When the program that wants to use "the editor" is running
63 ;; as a subprocess of Emacs.
65 ;; 4. On a system with job control, when Emacs is suspended, the program
66 ;; that wants to use "the editor" will stop and display
67 ;; "Waiting for Emacs...". It can then be suspended, and Emacs can be
68 ;; brought into the foreground for editing. When done editing, Emacs is
69 ;; suspended again, and the client program is brought into the foreground.
71 ;; The buffer local variable "server-buffer-clients" lists
72 ;; the clients who are waiting for this buffer to be edited.
73 ;; The global variable "server-clients" lists all the waiting clients,
74 ;; and which files are yet to be edited for each.
76 ;; Todo:
78 ;; - handle command-line-args-left.
79 ;; - move most of the args processing and decision making from emacsclient.c
80 ;; to here.
81 ;; - fix up handling of the client's environment (place it in the terminal?).

159 server file to the remote host (with possible changes to IP

163 remote TCP, arising from the fact that client-server

947 Authenticate the client using the secret authentication string
948 AUTH-STRING.
950 `-env NAME=VALUE'
951 An environment variable on the client side.
953 `-dir DIRNAME'
954 The current working directory of the client process.
956 `-current-frame'
957 Forbid the creation of new frames.
959 `-frame-parameters ALIST'
960 Set the parameters of the created frame.
962 `-nowait'
963 Request that the next frame created should not be
964 associated with this client.
966 `-display DISPLAY'
967 Set the display name to open X frames on.
969 `-position LINE[:COLUMN]'
970 Go to the given line and column number
971 in the next file opened.
973 `-file FILENAME'
974 Load the given file in the current frame.
976 `-eval EXPR'
977 Evaluate EXPR as a Lisp expression and return the
978 result in -print commands.
980 `-window-system'
981 Open a new X frame.
983 `-tty DEVICENAME TYPE'
984 Open a new tty frame at the client.
986 `-suspend'
987 Suspend this tty frame. The client sends this string in
988 response to SIGTSTP and SIGTTOU. The server must cease all I/O
989 on this tty until it gets a -resume command.
991 `-resume'
992 Resume this tty frame. The client sends this string when it
993 gets the SIGCONT signal and it is the foreground process on its
994 controlling tty.
996 `-ignore COMMENT'
997 Do nothing, but put the comment in the server log.
998 Useful for debugging.
1001 The following commands are accepted by the client:
1003 `-emacs-pid PID'
1004 Describes the process id of the Emacs process;
1005 used to forward window change signals to it.
1007 `-window-system-unsupported'
1008 Signals that the server does not support creating X frames;
1009 the client must try again with a tty frame.
1011 `-print STRING'
1012 Print STRING on stdout. Used to send values
1013 returned by -eval.
1015 `-print-nonl STRING'
1016 Print STRING on stdout. Used to continue a
1017 preceding -print command that would be too big to send
1018 in a single message.
1020 `-error DESCRIPTION'
1021 Signal an error and delete process PROC.
1023 `-suspend'
1024 Suspend this terminal, i.e., stop the client process.
